Patent EP-1378147-B1 (EP)

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a discharge module, particularly for dielectrically impeded discharge, whereby the gas discharge module is capable of producing ions and ozone in the air and has two electrodes between which an alternating high-voltage is applied thereby generating an electric field. The invention also relates to a device for operating an electric gas discharge module of the aforementioned type. According to the invention, ozone-producing discharge pulses and ions are produced when the alternating high-voltage exceeds a defined threshold value. The discharge pulses produce electrical signals, which are used for the purpose of automatically limiting the ozone production by means of a feedback thereto. In addition, the alternating high-voltage is lowered below the threshold value until no more discharge pulses and thus no more ozone are produced, however, ions are still produced in the electric field. Afterwards, the alternating high-voltage can be increased once more above the threshold value until discharge pulses are produced again which, in turn, are used to lower the alternating high-voltage below the threshold value again and so forth so that, due to the feedback, the alternating high-voltage oscillates around the threshold value.

Abstract: Mechanisms for QoS mapping rules on a mobile network between a UMTS layer and an IP layer are provided. A policy server is coupled to the SGSNs and GGSNs on the mobile network and maintains a centralized location for layer QoS mapping on the mobile network. Three mapping mechanisms have been provided, including an out-sourcing mechanism, a provisioning mechanism, and a hybrid mechanism. The out-sourcing mechanism uses the policy server to handle PDP context events and supply the appropriate rules to the appropriate support node. Under the provisioning mechanism, the policy server pushes down the corresponding mapping rules to each support node across the network in advance of any PDP context event. The hybrid mechanism utilizes a combination of the out-sourcing mechanism and the provisioning mechanism. The mechanisms ensure consistent UMTS layer QoS to IP layer QoS mapping across a mobile network.
